The College of Arts and Sciences, Department of Anthropology and Geography, at the University of Alaska Anchorage invite students to participate in the upcoming archaeological field school, to be held 5 July-8 August 2008. The field school will focus on excavation of the Little John Paleoindian Site in the Alaska / Yukon borderlands. The site has been dated to more than 12,000 C14 years ago, and contains well-preserved animal remains as well as tools of some of the earliest colonists of eastern Beringia. It is located directly on the Alcan Highway.
